A simple, strong, and efficient way to move logs. The Log Lift-n-Shift Log Arch is a robust yet lightweight tool designed for moving medium-sized felled logs with ease. It helps transport logs from awkward, restricted-access areas, keeping them off the ground and clean.

• For small woodland owners – Move logs to a track for easy loading onto a trailer or present them clean for a mobile sawmill or chainsaw.
• For arborists and landscapers – Extract felled butts from gardens or tight spaces without cutting them into smaller, lower-value sections.

Key features:

• Fits through narrow spaces – Requires only a 790mm (31") gate opening.
• Handles substantial logs – Lifts logs up to 350mm (14") in diameter and approximately 3m (10') long. Log weight may limit manual movement.
• Durable construction – Frame built from 50mm (2") steel tubing, powder-coated red for protection.
• Convenient storage – Stands upright when not in use, taking up minimal space.
• New ‘log-steady’ dogs – Includes a securing chain for extra stability.

Heavy-duty wheels:

• 400mm (16") pneumatic tyres
• 200mm (8") steel rims
• Roller-bearing solid metal hubs (must be greased before use)

Secure grip with UK-made log tongs:

• CNC-cut from 10mm steel with aggressively angled points
• Maximum opening: 16" (406mm)
• Designed for skidding only (not rated for lifting)

Weight and portability:

• Overall weight: Approximately 40kg
• Length: 1.7m (5'7") – fits easily into most vehicles or trailers
• Maximum combined weight rating: 310kg

Built to last. The Log Lift-n-Shift Log Arch is proudly manufactured in the North East of England by Woodsmith, designed for serious woodland work.
